Evo vs STi

Pretty huge amount of this subaru related blog’s visitors come from Google searching any tests(videos,comparisons etc) of Impreza STis and Lancer Evos.. I think it’s a pretty good idea to put all that stuff in this one section.. Enjoy ;)

dumb ass because you think you can…50% of you EVO heads are F.O.S. even with your 20g or if you even own an evo, you 24hr cac blunt smoking looser with a childish attitude, you must be a hebrew… a cobb stg one down load with a $350 uppipe will spank you 2 car lenghts in the 1/4…fact is fact, now lets bolt on your turbo on an STI…..The EVO is a kick ass car too..but you are an ass that easily would be kicked!

Help me Decide The Maintenance cost , repair & other regular services . . . .

Sti Vs EVO ?

i will be driving the car everyday ( 100-120 miles per day ) , might be putting around 40,000 miles per year . . . . .

for next 1 year , i do wanna keep the car STOCK ( the way it comes , i dont wanna make any changes to it ) YETTTT

Soo please give me more details about Evo VS STI ?

thanks

Based on the information you gave me, you’d be much better off with a Subaru. Why? For one thing they are rediculously reliable compared to say an EVO. No joke, my dad bought a 1990 Legacy and he racked up 415,000 miles on that thing without even having any major problems. He didnt put any money into that thing, and it still runs fucking great, unbelievable. Now I dont own an STI, but ive ridden in them a bunch, and have driven them twice. They are amazing, so fast, so stable, so reliabe. I want one

should i wait for 2007 sti ? or go ahead and get 2006 ?
i think 07 will be little better ( cuz of leather seats , heated seats and sunroof ) . . . . . .

i have talked to a lot of people , most of the people are telling me that Sti will be better over-all

evo’s are fast ( but thats sit ) they are only FASSSTTTT

daily driving , sti would be little bit more comfortable

i think evo’s look better ( cool young style ) VS sti looks more scary

soo now i am know that i will be getting an Sti over THE EVO

now i gotta decide about the year model ( should i get 06 or 07 ? )
please help me decide

thanks

Hi Maverick : could u please tell me how is the regular Mainteance on your car ? i mean the basic stuff ( service , oil change , labor cost , tire cost etc …….. ) right now i am driving 2003 benz C320 . i love my car but in winter ( i hate it ) cuz not stable enough ( real wheel drive suckssss )

if i buy 2006 sti and put 200,000 miles in 4 years ( i drive 50,000 miles per year ) do u think it would cost me Millions ( $$$ ) LOL for 06 sti maintenance ?

please reply and give me some advice

thanks

hello ray, I could say that STI 06 is a strong car for me, the regular maintenance if only $45 to $55 for synthetic oil mobil1, about the labor for maintenance i dont its not that expenssive compare to your car right now.the tire that comes for the STI 06 is not a ALL seasonal tires,i use my STI 06 to work and back home for about 50 miles a day 5 days a week i do change my oil every 2 and a half months or 3000 miles.as of now i never had a problem with my engine so i dont know how far it could get but i assure you STI 06 will take you long way for the rest of your race and normal driving.BENZ is a really nice car for me and i like Benz but sad to say i cant afford to maintain it. :) STI is good for all season coz of its 4WD and center Differencials that can make your ride smoother even on winter time..i am sure you will enjoy this car STI06 it has all you need for Day by Day Driving and Racing all in one.. :) hope i did answer your question Ray.. :)

thanks raverick

now few more questions : cuz u own a subaru ( u would be able to answer these questions ) . . .

question 1 - now should i wait until 2008 wrx sti comes out ? , cuz people are saying 08 would be “Off the Hook”

question 2 - what if i just Buy regular WRX ( non sti ) , how much would it cost me to make it as good as STI ( reason i was thinking about buying wrx , auto insurance might be lower )

question 3 - correct me if i am wrong . 2007 and 2006 ( almost the same car ) difference is : moonroof , leather , fog lights ? i think 2007 sti limited has all leather seats and a moomroof ? ……. plz help me compare 06-07 sti models

question 4 - per gallon , how many miles do u get ? ( city and hwy )
cuz i will be driving 125-150 miles per day . mainly on the Hwy . but i am trying to get the ruff idea about the gas .

question 5 - would it be okay if i keep this Sti stock ? can i still race with others ? or do i need to spend extra to make it really fast . ? ……………i rather keep it basic factory stock for next 2 years .

hi people , how are you all doing ??????? ( i hope everyone is doing very well …..

please give me some info , i need a bit help

price difference between regular Wrx and wrx sti ( around $8500-$10,000 ) ……

what if i get the regular 2006/2007 WRX ????? how much would it cost me to hook it up ( as good as or close to the Sti ? ) and what would i need to buy for the regular WRX ???

i went to the subaru dealership , i mean WOW ( i was there for 2 hours and i enjoyed every second while i was there and looking at great cars ) one guy bought the white sti limited . PAID CASH ( no finance , no loan , Green CASSShhhhh )

they are selling 2007 sti limited edition for $35866

out the door cost would be : $39,395
( va taxes around $1100 , tags 80 , dealer free $250 , extended warranty $2100 )

do you guys think it would be a good idea to buy an extended warranty on this car ( i mean they want $2100 ) 5 years and 100,000 miles warranty

i would be driving a lot ( 50,000 miles per year ) and if i get the car for 4 years . i will have around 200,000 miles —- soo i think its worth having the good extended warranty

now the price difference between the Sti and Sti limited is around $1800 ( good thing is the leather heated seats , fog lights , moonroof , lip spoiler )

the only reason i would get the Sti limited - dont come in blue color (only i think white and gray ) i really wanna get the blue one , i wish limited would come in WR BLUE

and the price difference between 2006 vs 2007 wrx sti is only $600 , soo i think only for 600 dollars , it would be a good idea to buy 2007 ( and not get 2006 ) . . . . . . . . unless they give me atleast 1000 dollars discount . i dont mind getting 2006

First of All about the WRX and STI.before i say that what happened to me is that i buy a Subaru WRX 06 on April 06 if im correct and after 3 months from the time i have the car i change it to a Subaru STI 06,its funny coz i just got the WRX and 3 months after i got the STI.the Features of the new STI 07 is not the much.just only for interiors and same engine and power.the looks is same still.the handling is also the same.not talking about the STI 08 i really dont have that idea to go for 08 coz the STI 06 is enough for me.So it depends on you Ray,now the car STI stock engine has alots of Power and Can Beat alots of cars on the Street.if your a nice Driver with a Stock vs Stock engine Evo and STI i go for STI..and 350Z and CAMAROS and alots and lots of Cars you can Beat then in your Stock Engine Ray.If you costumize your STI men your the King of the Road make sure you have a Helmet with you,heheh… The STI is the Top of the Line Cars that can hold you breath and give you the driving you want. now Price Deffirence,Dude dont waste your money if in the future your still going to STI coz i did it already i wasted lots of money instead of putting it on your Car.Save your money buy STI then use it all there..ill Check on my Manual if whats the Gas Per Mile on STI 06..dude dont waste your time Go in the Dealer ASAP..

question : someone told me that 2007 wrx sti limited is faster then the regular 2007 wrx sti ( non limited edition ) ? , cuz i heard limited models have a better gear or something special for higher performance . please give me more info. about it

i was ( wanted to ) buy the 08 limited model , but i want the WR blue color , and limited doesnt come in blue ( only gray and white )

$1800 more , to get the limited
but i think limited doesnt look very nice , looks very simple & plain
BLUE looks scary ( nice ) ……….thats what i want

I still dont know what to do

before i was looking for Sti ( no evo , for sure now ) i think subaru is better over-all ( evo’s are just a bit faster ) but made out of cheap plastic , lol

anyhow
what if i dont get the Sti - and i get regular WRX sedean ( a bit slower ) what do you guys think ?

problem is : i still wanna keep my mercedes , and if i get the sti ( it would be too much ) i will be paying around $1500 monthly payments for both of my car …….. plus higher auto insurance

so would it be good enough ? can i still beat the honda civic si , nissan 350z , G35 with my regular WRX sedan ?

WRX sedean ( non sti ) is around $7500-$8000 cheaper then the sti

i drive a lot ( 50,000 miles per year ) so i dont wanna be in sti ,all cops would be looking for me - lol

how would you really compare Sti vs regular wrx ? . . . . . i mean is there a big big big difference ?

Comment by WRBlueWRX07
2008-06-17 21:48:37

I have an 07 WRX, non-sti. I pulled up next to a G35 at 35 mph, I was in 2nd, turbo ready to kick in, we both hit it at the same time, and I maybe got half a car length in front of him through 4th, we stopped after that. At the next redlight, he said his car was brand new stock, so you can get a G35, but it’ll be close. Off the line, i don’t know, but most cars can’t hang with a 5000 rpm drop off the line that a Subie can do. A friend has an 07 Civic Si, and I’ll get a car length on him in any gear. We’ve gone at it numerous times. I’m not here to tout my subie, i love my car, but it’s stock, and it’s quick enough to hang. What i really love is that G35’s have 300hp or so, and they think they’ll dust anyone. If G35’s can’t get a stock WRX, they have no chance against an STi.

 
 
Comment by Ray
2006-12-19 22:04:20

Do you guys Think the regular stock WRX ( non sti ) could Beat G35 or nissan 350z ????

i am not getting an Sti . . . . i am getting an WRX sedan ( i just wanna make sure , non sti is still good enough ? fast enough ?

with the regular wrx sedan - could i still race with 350z , G35 , Civic Si ?

 
Comment by Carl
2007-01-03 03:23:38

Alrite! Let’s be practical an Evo can never beat a WRX on dirt. But! Can the WRX beat it on streets? Give credit where it is due! The exhaust sounds electrifying from the WRX but the blow-off on the Evo is second to none! As u can see, I can’t decide.

 
Comment by Paul
2007-01-09 16:38:36

I owned an Evolution 7 for 18 months, I have driven a friends Subaru STi (the wrx is slower than my Civic Type-R) The evo is a better drivers car whereas the STi is a much more comfortable place to be. The interior finish on a Subaru is better, however the seats dont offer as much support as the Evo’s. Anyone who tells you that one car is WAY better does not know what they are talking about. It depends what you want;
all out drivers car = Evo
day to day comfort = Subaru Sti
I lived happily with my evo and am about to order a new Evo 9.

Ray, I got a Scooby WRX (non STi.) 05. with Custom Exhaust (3,5 Inches) and 1BAR of Turbo boost and i can beat 350z.

so. remember, my car got a 2.0 liter engine only.
the new subarus got a 2.5 liter engine. so if u got a WRX 06 or 07 with a huge Exhaust line (like me) and a little more turbo boost (1 bar it’s ok and u go fastr) u can beat Stock 350z and G35, Mustangs GT, and a lot more.

but.. i’m going for a new Scooby STi black :) in march of this year (07).

i hope this information can help u.

i forgot!…

my car have Stock Internals.( pistons, rods, etc.)
u can go safe with 17pick PSI (stock Turbocharger) Boost in a Stock Engine.
if u wanna go faster, u need forged internals and a best turbo..

but if u want a nice driving every day.. it would be ok a stock engine with 1 bar (15 psi) of boost and custom Exhaust line.

wrx or sti ……… 06 or 07 ……. etc

I have driven both cars. I think the STi is better at everything accept speed. I couldn’t even tell the difference but every article shows it. Therefore, the STi is better overall because those fractions of a second don’t matter on the street. Anyways, I would take everything minus a couple hundreths of a second over a couple hundreths of a second and nothing wouldn’t you?
